Intuition guides me through my paintings as I create, sometimes with no goal in mind. Listening to my inner thoughts and feelings, I guide a myriad of brushes and tools on blank pages/substrates. Through many layers I ask and answer questions, adding and subtracting, and covering up parts. It takes patience and letting go of parts I love only to be covered up with my fascination with a new line, color, shape, or different mark.

It could be days, weeks, or months for one of my pieces to say “I am done and ready to share with others.” It is all part of the creative process: joy and gratitude in creating a piece of art.

My art takes viewers on a visual experience as they explore textures, and multiple layers and discover little surprises throughout the piece; basically an invitation to take their own journey as they view a piece of my art.

I currently live in Northeast Ohio with my husband and 2 dogs, having lived most of my life in Kansas and Missouri. After 20 years as a lampwork artist, I now find joy in creating intuitive acrylic abstract paintings. Many of my art pieces reflect my sights, emotions, and feelings abstractly inspired by nature's beauty in NE Ohio.
